I'm rooting for Arsenal for the EL final simply so it would mean that Lacaz would put even more pressure on Deschamps if he wins it and plays as good as he's been in EL this season. It's a bit symbolic that Giroud may play upfront against him though Sarri will probably start Higuain. Chelsea already has continental silverware (I mean Arsenal have a C2 but nobody really cares about that one anymore) so I don't think they'll be too mad if they don't win this one.
For CL, I think both coach deserve it :
- Klopp has been doing a phenomenal job at Liverpool by switching his tactics from his BVB days and adapting to the EPL. His team is now fully confident without the ball and can also (not as expertly as City of course) maneouver deep sitting teams, stuff that he couldn't do two years ago or with BVB at all. They smartly recruited to cover their weaknesses last season (goalie and CB) so LFC's management have been excellent thus far. This will be his third CL final and I'm sure he'll have some others. I hope he'll retire with at least 1 CL title.
- On the other hand, Pochettino though he had plenty of luck in this run has built a group with great cohesion and heart though he didn't have any possibility to make huge transfers compared to the EPL top dogs. But still he managed to elevate Tottenham to the highest places in EPL since he took charge of the team. He's now one step from the CL title and it would be a great thing for him to win and this would secure him as one of the best managers in the world rightfully so. His work at Spurs isn't really recognized and that would be the cherry on it. I wish Kane was healthy so both squad could be at 100% but this is on him for being reckless.
So I'll be a neutral for the CL title. I think I may lean a tiny bit to Spurs because they will be underdogs but wouldn't be mad at all if LFC lifts the cup. I know for sure that the game will be high intensity fukkery.
